A massive black hole, with a mass equivalent to six Suns, is devouring a giant star and releasing intense radiation in deep space. The cosmic event is taking place in V4641 Sagittarii, a system approximately 20,000 light-years away from Earth. Scientists have detected gamma rays with energies of up to 200 teraelectronvolts (TeV), which is much higher than typically seen in quasars. This rare phenomenon has been observed by the High-Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) observatory.
